Explain again to me Lord when I´m here I don´t know, I don´t know The setting for the stage is still not clear Where´s the show, where´s the show? Let it begin, let it begin, I´m born, can you use me?
What would you have me to do Lord Shall I sing them a song? I could tell them all about you, Lord I could write of the loves I have known I´ll work in their cotton and cornfields I promise to do all I can I´ll laugh and I´ll cry I´ll live and I´ll die Please, Lord, let me be a man
Dear Lord, let me be a man And I´ll give it all that I can If I´m needed in this distant land Please, Lord, let me be a man
Before I begin this level of journeying Portraying most typical man
Last minute instructions Would surely be welcome Please, Lord, let me hold to your hand
Dear Lord, let me be a man And I´ll give it all that I can If I´m needed in this distant land Please, Lord, let me be a man
